structure to the space of prime factors

There is topological structure https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/2879/mapping-natura... http://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/arithmetic+topology as well as geometric (arithmetic geometry). Question is how does the picture correspond to any of it. Glancing at the UMAP paper https://arxiv.org/abs/1802.03426 it looks like a proper invariant preserving embedding, so maybe loops in the image are real. Even if not, it does hint artistically at sorts of stuff that exist.
